Math+8


 * Math 8 **

The mathematics department has adopted a program which has been developed by Carnegie Learning to meet the requirements of the Keystone exam. This program replaced Saxon Math for 6th grade to Algebra 2 math classes in the district. The transition started in the 2013-2014 academic year and will continue to roll forward until full implementation is realized in the following years. Carnegie Math is an integrated series which includes Course1,2,3; Bridge Algebra,Algebra 1,Algebra 2 and Geometry. The courses are hybrid combination of classwork with a focus on cooperative learning and problem solving skills and computer time to develop fundamental skills through individual practice. The classes will be divided roughly 60-40 for class/computer time.

The Carnegie Learning Math Series Course 2 is all new and written specifically for the Common Core State Standards.This course contains complete alignment, coverage, and support for the Standards for Mathematical Content and Practice. Course 2 focuses on proportional reasoning, developing number sense, algebraic thinking, geometry, and statistical thinking and probability.
 * Course 2**

The Carnegie Learning Course 3 is all new and written specifically for the Common Core State Standards. This course contains complete alignment, coverage, and support for the Standards for Mathematical Content and Practice. Course 3 focuses on algebraic thinking, geometry, and statistical thinking and probability, and revisits algebraic thinking and geometry.
